In a written TF scene, too many adverbs can ruin it and weaken the language. Instead a stronger verb should be used.

For example, instead of saying: "Danielle's feet slowly grew to twice their length; It was very painful," say "Danielle's feet stretched to twice their length; the pain was excruciating."

I also think "suddenly" is one of the most overused adverbs in all of TF fiction. "Suddenly, the pain hit her," or "suddenly the changes stopped." It's not needed.

I'll also be the first to admit I'm a horrible offender when it comes to this. So from here on out, no more adverbs in TFs.
